Competition among causes but not effects in predictive and diagnostic learning.

TL;DR: Four experiments are presented that use asymmetries of cue competition to discriminate between the views that people are sensitive to causal directionality during learning and the view that learning primarily involves acquiring associations between cues and outcomes irrespective of their causal role.

Behavioral Measurements of Absolute and Frequency‐Difference Thresholds in Guinea Pig

TL;DR: Compared to other mammals, the auditory capacities of guinea pig are within one standard deviation of the mammalian mean on each of six dimensions: high‐frequency and low‐frequency cutoff, lowest intensity, best frequency, area of the audible field, and frequency discrimination.

Human Neural Learning Depends on Reward Prediction Errors in the Blocking Paradigm

TL;DR: The data suggest that learning in primary reward structures in the human brain correlates with prediction errors in a manner that complies with principles of formal learning theory.

Facilitation of latent inhibition by haloperidol in rats

TL;DR: Two experiments investigated the effects of 0.1 mg/kg haloperidol administration on LI as a function of number of CS pre-exposures, and found that the effect was much more pronounced under the drug.

Reward and Aversion

TL;DR: This review aims to outline historic perspectives and new insights into the functions of DA and 5-HT systems in coding the distinct components of rewards, and highlights recent advances in neural circuit studies enabled by new technologies, such as cell-type-specific electrophysiology and tracing, and optogenetics-based behavioral manipulation.
